Mortgage Application Hub
Applying for a mortgage can feel overwhelming, but we have advisors who specialise in guiding people through the process step by step.
Mortgage Application Advice
A mortgage application is more than just filling out a form. Lenders want to see that you can afford the loan, have a reliable income, and manage your finances responsibly. They check this through a combination of documents, affordability calculations, and a credit check.
At Online Mortgage Advisor, we have advisors who understand how lenders assess applications. They will explain what is needed upfront, help you prepare the correct documents, and guide you through the process so you know exactly what to expect. This gives you certainty and confidence that your application is being handled correctly.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer, remortgaging, or moving home, you’re in the right place. We’re here to help make your mortgage journey as stress-free as possible.
We offer a range of guides tailored to specific circumstances, as well as assistance for individuals with poor credit or those who are self-employed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions about mortgages, rates, or the application process? Our comprehensive FAQ section covers everything from first-time buyer queries to complex remortgage scenarios.
While there’s no fixed timeframe, a mortgage application typically takes between 6 to 8 weeks from submission to completion. This process can vary based on factors like the complexity of your financial situation, how quickly you provide the necessary documentation, and the efficiency of your solicitor and lender. Delays can occur if additional checks or valuations are needed.
You’ll know your mortgage is approved once you receive a formal mortgage offer from the lender. This document confirms that the lender is willing to provide you with the loan, subject to any final legal checks. Your solicitor will also be notified, and this offer is typically valid for a set period, usually around 3 to 6 months.
Your first chat with an advisor is always free and comes with no obligation. If you choose to go ahead, fees vary depending on the complexity of your case, but you will always know the cost upfront. You will never be charged without agreeing to it first.
A mortgage advisor will search the market for you and recommend the best deal based on your situation. They do more than compare rates. They understand lender criteria, manage the paperwork, and know how to get complex cases approved.
